Aw shucks. Very gracious of you not to bill for your keyboard, lol. Re: http://cheezburger.com/6871027200 yep, ditto black cat phobias etc. To me, "cats is cats" i.e. they're all wonderful. (Though I still can't warm to the hairless ones.) Thanks for the thumbs-up.

Being special isn't everything it's cracked up to be, "he said with tongue planted firmly in cheek." Seriously, I know people who take steroids for medical conditions and the side effects aren't pretty. Wish no one needed that class of drug. re optical, really gratifying to find a place you can trust, even if it take two tries.

That's odd, I thought you had the two surgeries and poof, everything was great again. Together with hearing you're like Superwoman losing her powers, that really is frustrating. Do they have any idea what the cause might be? Your cats sound special, wish I could meet them one day. *purr*

Quite all right. Dr TinyCat was puttering around, fixing and upgrading, things were hairy for a bit and should be OK now. (knock, knock) Perhaps checking with the court reporter is in order? Vacation's nice, extended maybe not so nice. Can Lucy handle a weed whacker?
